Unfortunately, Hawkgirl spends most of the rest of the fic unconscious, so she doesn't get to have any fun, but I'm already planning a sequel, in which she gets more than her fair share.

"We know that Superman can be defeated with Kryptonite. How else?" Savage snapped. Hawkgirl was actually unconscious, but was under the control of a powerful mind controlling agent. She shook her head.
"No other way. Only Kryptonite." The voice was almost mechanical.
"What's his secret identity?" Harley asked.
"John Stewart." Hawkgirl replied.
"And Batman's?" Ivy inquired.
"Clark Kent." Came the reply.
"What about Green Lantern?" Savage asked. The reaction that produced, was not good. She snapped upwards straining at her restraints. Ivy uncased the orchid rapidly, and the smell put her back out. "Blast it." He snarled, muttering to himself.
"What's the problem?" A voice asked from the doorway. Harvey Dent, former district attorney, now the criminal Two-Face, asked as he entered, flanked by Ultra-Humanite, and Metallo. "Have you garnered anything useful?"
"Yes, we've learned the identities of two of the league members." Ivy reported.
"And all kinds of recipes for cooked lizard." Harley grinned. Dent flashed a look that silenced her.
"Perhaps if someone competent was given a chance to do it, you might have something useful." Humanite muttered.
"Listen monkey. I watched humans evolve away from you apes, and I'm not about to put our fate back in your hands." Savage snarled. Metallo stepped forwards.
"Well, yous don't seem to be gettin' the job done, so, why not let him have a crack at it?" He asked, trying to smooth things over. For some reason, he'd adopted an exaggerated Jersey accent lately. "What could it hurt? If you're so worried, stay here, and watch." Ivy winced as he talked.
"I should go after him as an affront to nature, just for that accent." She muttered to Harley, who nodded.
"In the morning. We are all tired, and she isn't going anywhere. Metallo, you do not require sleep to guard this room?" The robot nodded. "Good, I don't want any of us allowed in here until all of us come to enter. That includes Bane." He added the last, betting that Savage would have had him enter, and steal Hawkgirl from them, and then the four would vanish into the night.
"Right, boss." Metallo replied. Dent gave him a sour look, that even had his face been whole, would have scared Batman.

"What do you mean the trail ends?" Lantern snapped. He'd been charging the ring. So Zatanna was following the trail for us.
"Right there, in that cliff side." She pointed at the cliff we stood before. It appeared to be a blank face, covered in vines, and weather worn.
"Hang on." Lantern pulled the ring back, and aimed it at the tracks sure enough they ended in the cliff. Supergirl walked up to the cliff, and reached through the vines to feel it. Her arm went in to her shoulder. Then she screamed.
"They're alive!" She yelled, and began to fight to pull back. Lantern raised his ring, and fired a laser fine stream, severing one. I tossed Zatanna Hawkgirl's mace, as more of the vines sprang up. Chi stared at them a moment, then vanished. For a second, we were all, with the exception of Supergirl, who had other things on her mind, were amazed. Then the vines reached for us, and we were completely focused on saving ourselves. Zatanna was bashing through them with Hawkgirl's mace. I knew she had other ways of dealing with them, but they were all unsuited to fighting in the rain forest. She didn't want to risk a forest fire. I agreed whole heartedly. Instead of the tricks I had, which were similar, I called for one of the swords from my collection, and began to hack at them. After a few moments of no progress, I exchanged it for an axe. Lantern had the same idea, using the ring to form one, for the second time. As for Supergirl, she was blasting carefully, with her heat vision, until her arm was free, then she began to snap them off.
"Supergirl, the roots!" Lantern yelled, pointing over head. She rose into the air, and gripped the stem of the vines. With a grunt, she ripped it out of the cliff, and rose higher into the air. Lantern fired his ring up, creating a cup below the vines. Zatanna took the cue.
"Erif." Fire engulfed most of the vines, hot enough to bake them straight into ash. The last, Supergirl dropped, and baked with her heat vision. Lantern swung his arm, and scattered the ashes, which Supergirl had cooled with a breath. She dropped to the ground.
"That's all of them." Lantern sighed. Chi reappeared. Lantern said nothing to him.

"I wonder, if Lantern and the others have found what they are seeking yet?" J'onn asked Flash.
"Knowing GL, he's already getting a big kiss." Flash responded. "Wouldn't surprise me in the least."
"I suppose." J'onn replied. "Are you up to helping Batman with a disturbance?" Flash nodded. "Excellent, Joker, and a group of villains are rampaging through Gotham. He's requesting back up. Superman is already there, as are Green Arrow, Hawk, Dove, and Metamorpho.
"Right, see you later." Air swirled as he vanished. J'onn sighed as his cape settled.
